HTEC Unveils $900 Million H2 Gateway Project in British Columbia and Alberta
Key Ideas
  • HTEC's H2 Gateway project in BC and Alberta includes 20 hydrogen refuelling stations, with 18 in BC and 2 in Alberta, capable of refuelling 300 heavy-duty vehicles per day.
  • The project will also feature three electrolyzers in Burnaby, Nanaimo, and Prince George, and a new liquidation facility in North Vancouver producing 15 tonnes of byproduct daily.
  • Government funding of $133 million from BC and $337 million from the federal government has been secured for the project, highlighting BC's commitment to hydrogen as an alternative fuel source.
Vancouver-based HTEC has revealed plans for the $900 million H2 Gateway project spanning British Columbia and Alberta. The initiative boasts 20 hydrogen refuelling stations, with the majority (18) situated in BC, and the remaining 2 in Alberta. Notably, 14 of these stations will have the capacity to service up to 300 heavy-duty vehicles every day. Additionally, the project comprises three electrolyzers strategically located in Burnaby, Nanaimo, and Prince George, as well as a new liquidation facility in North Vancouver anticipated to produce 15 tonnes of byproduct daily. HTEC's project has received substantial support from governmental bodies, securing $133 million from BC's Low Carbon Fuel Standard and a significant $337 million from the federal government through the Canada Infrastructure Bank. British Columbia's focus on hydrogen as a viable alternative aligns with its broader Hydrogen Strategy, evident through the funding of various projects encompassing large-scale production and fuelling stations. While some skepticism exists regarding hydrogen's future in vehicle technology, particularly observed through Shell's exit from the market in California, BC remains steadfast in its belief in hydrogen as a credible future alternative.
